Pablo Ziegler Classical Tango Quartet

"Ziegler went far beyond the confines of Tango, or Latin Jazz, or Bossa Nova, or world music, or classical. He brought something from each to a stew that somehow simultaneously edified and electrified as the quartet effortlessly negotiated myriad tempo changes, key changes, mood changes and shifts from complex unison passagework to stretches of inspired improvisation"
– James Chute, U-T San Diego

A consummate ensemble featuring piano, bandoneon, cello and double bass, the Pablo Ziegler Classical Tango Quartet breathes with nuance and refinement, at once subtle and utterly expressive. Latin Grammy-winner Pablo Ziegler, the pre-eminent living member of Astor Piazzolla’s groundbreaking ensemble, leads the group in exquisite arrangements of his own compositions as well as the music of tango legends like J.C. Cobian and Piazzolla. Writes Ken Herman for San Diego Story: “Pablo Ziegler and his Classical Tango Quartet proved this Argentine music could rub shoulders with Schubert and Brahms and hold its head high.”
